Re: [android-developers] 3.0 dialog with WebView inside FrameLayout doesn't resize

For the record,

I just filed a report of this including a simple demonstration app in
apk as well as tgz format:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14981

Just run in the 3.0 emulator and something pre-3.0 to see the difference.
